The Shell.Application object method wraps the SHFileOperation() call that Ed mentions in his post. I wrote an article about it (June, I think) in 2000 for the VFUG newsletter.

Actually, it was July of 2000 not June. SHFileOperation() as Ed mentioned in the UT's API section. The Shell.Application object is documented in Shellcc.chm. The SHFileOperation() is documented in the Platform SDK.
